Academic Qualifications

Same as Before!

Currently Taking;

ICT Practitioners Level 3 BTEC

Art and Design Level 2 BTEC

Notes:

My BTEC courses are going well I am achieving Merits and Distinctions in my Art and Design BTEC course.  I am on top of all my coursework currently and achieving merits, if I have time at the end I will attempt the distinction work to achieve the maximum grade possible. I am hoping next year to take a Graphics course or a Fine Art course so I am able to design or draw to very fine detail as I am currently quite good at drawing. My job is going well at John Lewis as my contract runs out in April but hoping it will be renewed so I will be there with a full contract part-time.

Pizza Presentation

We had to design a prototype pizza delivery system, in groups of no more than 3, which then we had to present to the class our ideas and prototype in a presentation.
The group was only two people Jack and Steve, to begin with we had to draw rough ideas onto a A4 piece of paper and find the information and design we wanted with all the presets and delivery information, then we went on to copying it onto a A1 piece of paper and present.
Once we had presented out design and information we then had to ask answer questions givin to us about our ideas and what we could change about the design and information also adding bits in that we missed to reach Kates expectations for the delivery prototype.
Firsty we sat through two presentations first to see what other people had done and ask them questions, then tell them if their missing any requirements with there designs and then give them help on how to change it to make it fit.
I believe our presentation went well, we both talked about our ideas at certain stages, we did not have to answer many questions as we throught though our design very well as we had already asked kate what she needed.
The leadership of the group wasnt there we all helped eachother and worked as a good team on deciding ideas and presentation which worked well as we both had good ideas to add during the build of the prototype. I believe we worked really well and quickly to produce a good prototype.
